Pretty in Pink

[SilkRoad]

Love this film...kind of wish life was like this...it all works out in an hour and a half with a pink prom dress...

Types of characters? Here's what I've got so far:

Andie: ISFP
Andie's dad: INFJ
Duckie: ENFP
Steff: ESTP
Blane: ISFJ

 

[Speed Gavroche]

James Spader's character is ExTP for sure.

...You still have him as your avatar although you know how things turn out for him?

Andie: IxTJ
Duckie: ENFP
Iona: ExxP
Jack (Andie's dad): INFP
Jenna (Andie's friend): ISTP
Blane: IxFJ
Steff: ESTP

Why would you say IxTJ for Andie?

Why would you say IxTJ for Andie?

Because she's the responsible one in the family and among her friends, is very serious and a perfectionist. She's pragmatic, ambitious, has a no-nonsense attitude towards relationships, demands closure, doesn't like surprises and isn't afraid to hurt others feelings if it will give her answers. She's a hard ass. I'd type her as INTJ or ISTJ.*

*I haven't seen the show in a while but have watched it ~25-30 times in the past 25 years so just typing from memory.

Can't argue too much with that.

I don't see any Ni (or Ne) in her particularly though. Pretty sure she's a Sensor. I could see an argument for her being any ISxx type. ISTJ definitely seems possible.

I always really related to Andie's dad when watching this movie. It looks like I know why after this thread.

Yeah, I think he could definitely be an INFP. I'd say definitely INFP or INFJ. I find it hard to type fictional characters (especially film) as they tend to be a mixture of types, though.
